Xanthan-based polysaccharide/protein nanoparticles: Preparation, characterization, encapsulation and stabilization of curcumin

This work presents the use of xanthan gum (XG) to prepare protein-containing nanoparticles (NPs). A biocompatible methodology of electrostatic complexation at acidic pH and subsequent thermal treatment is applied using the protein bovine serum albumin (BSA). The NPs have well-defined size and molar...
